A method of forming a metal plug, comprising the following steps. An etched dielectric layer, over a conductive layer, over a semiconductor structure are provided. The etched dielectric layer having a via hole and an exposed periphery. The etched dielectric layer is treated with at least one alkaline earth element source to form an in-situ metal barrier layer within the dielectric layer exposed periphery. A metal plug is formed within the via hole wherein the in-situ metal barrier layer prevents diffusion of the metal from the metal plug into the dielectric oxide layer.

A method of removing copper contamination from a semiconductor wafer, comprising the following steps. A semiconductor wafer having copper contamination thereon is provided. An oxidizing radical containing downstream plasma is provided from a first source (alternatively halogen (F2, Cl2, or Br2) may be used as on oxidizing agent). A vaporized chelating agent is provided from a second source. The oxidizing radical containing downstream plasma and vaporized chelating agent are mixed to form an oxidizing radical containing downstream plasma/vaporized chelating agent mixture. The mixture is directed to the copper contamination so that the mixture reacts with the copper contamination to form a volatile product. The volatile product is removed from the proximity of the wafer.

A method of preventing metal penetration and diffusion from metal structures formed over a semiconductor structure, comprising the following steps. A semiconductor structure including a patterned dielectric layer is provided. The patterned dielectric layer includes an opening and an upper surface. The dielectric layer surface is then passivated to form a passivation layer. A metal plug is formed within the dielectric layer opening. The passivation layer prevents penetration and diffusion of metal out from the metal plug into the semiconductor structure and the patterned dielectric layer.

A method of bonding a bonding element to a metal bonding pad, comprising the following steps. A semiconductor structure having an exposed metal bonding pad within a passivation layer opening is provided. The bonding pad has an upper surface. A bonding element is positioned to contact the bonding pad upper surface. A bonding solution is applied within the passivation layer opening, covering the bonding pad and a portion of the bonding element. The structure is annealed by heating said bonding element to selectively solidify the bonding solution proximate said contact of said bonding element to said bonding pad, bonding the bonding element to the bonding pad.

A method of forming a conductive cap layer over a metal bonding pad comprises the following steps. A semiconductor structure is provided having an exposed, recessed metal bonding pad within a layer opening. The layer has an upper surface. The exposed metal bonding pad is treated with a solution containing soluble metal ions to form a conductive cap over the metal bonding pad. The conductive cap layer is comprised of the solution metal and has a predetermined thickness. An external bonding element may then be bonded to the conductive cap, forming an electrical connection with the metal bonding pad.
